Description: The threat of nuclear war or serious nuclear accident remains with us. Tom Law argues that these risks are increasing to a chilling degree with the continued proliferation of nuclear facilities, particularly in the emerging economies of Asia. The rise of terrorism concurrent with the spread of nuclear technology into fundamentalist Islamic countries brings a new ingredient of uncertainty to the present balance. Only a new approach of awareness and tolerance can prevent an imminent slide into chaos.
